Answer: Option A
:
A
HCG (Human chorionic gonadotrophin) is a hormone that is produced by placental cells that nourish the fertilized egg after it is attached to the uterine wall. A pregnancy kit helps to determine whether a woman is pregnant. The urine of a pregnant woman will have HCG present in it and the pregnancy kit will have antibodies specific to HCG. A colored reaction helps in detecting the presence of HCG confirming a positive pregnancy.
